Travel—Self-Driving Cars

Self-driving cars are another application of AI that is
changing transportation. These cars use cameras, sensors,
and AI to navigate, understand their surroundings, and

make decisions—often with little to no human input. For
example, Tesla's Autopilot.

Tesla, an American electric vehicle manufacturer, has
developed an advanced driver-assistance system called
Autopilot that can take over some driving tasks but still

requires the driver to remain alert and ready to take control at any time.

Working of Self-Driving Cars

The working of Self-Driving car is as follows:

• Sensors: These cars have sensors like cameras and RADAR to see the road, other cars, and
obstacles around them.

• Understanding the environment: AI uses the sensor data to understand what’s around the
car, like people, traffic signs, and other vehicles.

• GPS and maps: The car uses GPS and maps to know exactly where it is and where it needs to go.
• Making decisions: AI decides the best way to drive, like when to stop, go, or turn, based on

road rules and surroundings.
• Driving: The car uses AI to control the steering, speed, and brakes to safely drive.

AI-Assisted Fitness Apps—Fitbit
AI-powered fitness apps are designed to help individuals exercise

properly by monitoring their body movements and suggesting
corrections in real-time. These apps analyse body shapes and offer
guidance for better posture and movements during exercises.

Fitbit is a fitness tracking app that syncs with Fitbit wearables to
monitor health metrics, including daily steps, heart rate, sleep
patterns, and calories burned.

Working of Fitbit

The working of Fitbit is as follows:

• Wearable integration: Users wear a Fitbit device, which tracks physical activity such as
steps, heart rate, and sleep.

• Activity tracking: Fitbit tracks daily steps, active minutes, and exercise, providing insights
into users’ activity levels and offering reminders to stay active.
